Solo Chance

Calculate the chance of hitting a bitcoin block when solo mining!

About

Work in progress but just a little fun thing I made. I got fed up of calculating my lotto chance every time! Hopefully you solo and lotto miners will find this useful! Shout out to CK for his great solo pool and sidehack for his USB miners.

You might want to consider adding selectors for terahash and petahash, it's a bit tedious typing in so many numbers otherwise, cool site! You always have that chance to hit it, no matter how small maybe add network difficulty and network hashrate? The site is fine as it is, but those last two are pretty big.

Exactly what I was going to suggest. Had to use calculator just in case to be accurate. Sadly the halving took away this gambling type. Rent hash, point it to solo.ck and wait for Bitcoin Gods to choose you and honor your effort. Also the total diffuculty is over the roof compared what is was to last year. I recall a guy renting 100 ths and finding a block. Also a guy with an s3 solo mining found a block.

Its better the play dice atm.

Cheers guys, haha yeah that's definitely on the to-do list.

When it's completed it will also give funny facts based on your chance like "you have more chance to fall down a manhole today" etc.

Looks like a nice site but I don't get this "chance every 10 minutes" thing. No matter what Hash Rate you enter you always get this "chance every 10 minutes" notice. I know it's technically true but I can't call it a useful information because to me it sounds like "every minute you have a chance to die". I think much more useful is a statement like this "in the next 200 years you will die for sure".

But thanks anyway for trying to do something helpful and free for people. Good job!

lol a s9 has 1 in 123,488 every 9 minutes

[Morguk]

thanks but I don't think it is really accurate you can't predict it

How do you mean? It's mathematical chance.

math + language is hard for people to understand

a suggestion is give two answers the same 10 minute answer and a one day answer.  which would be to divide the 10 minute answer by 144

we are in 2016, you are wasting your time ... I think the best way to easily generate bitcoin: www.duckbit.com I think everyone agrees, and you have nothing to lose.

Offers that look too good to be true, usually are just that (i.e. NOT true).

Nobody earns 1BTC/week with no risk and or no investment.

Self-advertising and a cloudminer? Please. If you're going to lure people into a cloudmining scam, don't do it here, and don't do it on a throwaway. We've all seen our fair share of cloudmining scams, and it'd be foolish to invest in this one. if you don't have the electricity price to mine yourself, don't do it. You do not own the hashrate you're buying.



Rolling the dice is actually pretty fun imo, and considering you're holding your own miners and not renting hashrate from someone else it makes me feel more secure. I've yet to hit a block, but I have gotten a few 100bil shares in the last month.

I like the minimalistic theme style, maybe it is the browser...I haven't noticed a contact form on your site?

My suggestion is to implement Widgets to your site so external websites could have that data on their websites.

It's mathematical chance.

Exactly. That's why I can't figure out what's the use of it. If we get "1 in 85,511,274 chance every 10 minutes" what can we do with those numbers? Can't we just say "very small chance to happen every 10 minutes"?

terahash and petahash updates needed but good logic and math skills..

Hope to see more in the website. Bookmarked.

[Morguk]

Glad to see some people are finding is amusing/useful. I plan to add more to the site in the near future!

LOVE YOUR SITE

If there was a way that my web browser would remember my mining cksolo address ?

Maybe if the field was visible to auto fill but my browser doesn't seem to remember it

Currently I copy and paste it from the solo URL

There doesn't seem to be another calculator like this I was doing the math by hand before

25TH, solo for life and keep adding machines when I can.

If I don't score a block in the next 12 months I might give up its possible but I'll have 35TH soon and more to come

[Eagleone]

I just want it to use cookies in such a way that it remembers my address.

also I donated did you guys donate ?

It remembers mine in chrome, what browser are you using buddy?

This is a cool and useful app, but maybe you should add more options like kh/s,mh/s,gh/s,th/s?

Could help others calculate with accuracy.

Going to add this in the near future  

Thanks for the kind words guys.

Finally updated it!

Changelog

• Added about popup.
• Changed some styling.

Todo list includes adding other coins, adding other ways to display chance including per day, and also fun facts like 'you have more chance to fall down a manhole'. Other suggestions keep them coming!

Nice site, shame we don't stand much of a chance.
Nice to dream tho!
Would be good if you listed a few online solo pools on there with stats from that pool.
I have found one before, definitely in existence, I just don't have the details on me now.
I believe that people with large farms, that they rent out, use these solo pools when no one is renting.

Cheers! I'm only going to support CK's pool as I use it myself and like his work.

I might add a time feature and it will calculate total chance over a period of time.

[Eagleone]

Hmm always chrome but I'm on an iPad most of the time. Ipads are wonky sometimes

I currently copy and paste my entire .org address and then back space over the web address part.

Let me fool with auto correct a little. I would be happy If it would even just remember my BTC address when I put my cursor on the field.

I don't really "care" just trying to come up with constructive criticism.

We all owe CK and from my perspective solo mining is the only way to go. The lump sum Is the only way to get ahead. If your paying for residential power then yea you need to be on a pool but USA commercial electric rates are not that hard to get/find
